Nkem is a heartist and soul ethnographer devoted to inward journeying and embodying creative wisdom. In her artwork, she explores the mysticism of abstraction created through the sensual, soulful, art-making experience. Her varied exploration of art includes painting, writing, poetry, dance, drawing, design, photography, and artistry as an approach to crafting a meaningful and beautiful life — life, itself, as a healing art experience.

Nkem is the Founder of Wellspringwords and has been a teacher of writing for 12+ years. She is the author of the poetry collection Poetry and the immediate: A collection of sensed spaces, loves to dance, cook, enjoy warm drinks in the morning, and take long walks to connect with Gaia.
